Character Name: V’dryn (formerly Vaedryn)
Age: 18
Gender: Male
Preference: Both
Previous Position: Hold Labourer
Current Position: Brownrider
Appearance: Vaedryn is of average height, around 5’11”, and has a broad build. His wide shoulders often make him appear larger than he is, and is well-toned by Turns of hard labour. A strong, imposing presence, V’dryn can’t help but be noticed by everyone when he enters a room.
His sharp features are highlighted by chestnut brown hair, which is cut fairly short and reaches just to his ears. V’dryn’s eyes, in contrast, are pale blue and can pierce right through anyone he directs his gaze at. His nose is narrow and slightly pointed, and his jaw is strong and rather square in shape. Although he smiles only rarely, he has a genuine and rather sweet smile, which is probably why he avoids it.
Personality: This young man is far from bubbly; Vaedryn is often quiet and broody, but what may be mistaken for sulky introversion is actually a sign of a mind constantly at work. Vaedryn is quiet, because he is thinking, planning, and strategizing. He has great ambitions in life, and he takes every conversation seriously. Every person he interacts with could be a stepping stone to power in his future.
Although no one has managed to find his vulnerable side yet, V’dryn is very much at risk of letting someone get too close. If he cares deeply for someone, it will be much more difficult for him to act decisively towards his plans. Thus, this brownrider makes a point of avoiding others unless absolutely necessary. When he is interacting with others, he tends to dominate the conversation in a quiet and confident manner.
History: The second of three children of a Kitchen Worker and a Hold Steward, V’dryn was raised in a Major Hold on the Eastern side of the Southern Continent. His life was certainly not one of luxury, for his parents laboured throughout each day and had little time to care for him or his other two brothers. They were dropped off each morning with an old woman, along with many other Holdbrats, who cared for them until their parents could retrieve them each evening. This only lasted until the lads were old enough to begin working, of course. Then, they joined their parents in service to the Lord Holder.
V’dryn resented his low position all his Turns at the Hold. It wasn’t right that he clean the Hold for the Lord Holder’s brats simply because of a misfortune at birth. Thus, at the age of 12, the young man decided to forge his own way in the world and joined the ranks of the Hold’s guards. There, he could advance through his own skill, and he applied himself to the training with great fervour. By 16, he was one of the most dangerous men in the Hold and had an impressive set of scars along his arms and torso. When he was Searched that Turn and Impressed at Artemis Moonlight Weyr, V’dryn knew that his time had finally come. As a dragonrider, he had access to power and respect.
The chance to jump forward to the future, where few Sr. dragonriders were there to compete with, was too tantalizing, and V’dryn eagerly took the leap with his Mordreth. Unfortunately, they misjudged the timing and arrived quite late, a few Turns after Araelen Weyr had been established. Still, V’dryn was ready to establish his place in this new world.
Position in Family: Middle child with one older and one younger brother
Pets: None
Relation to Existing Character: N/A
Dragon's Name: Mordreth
Dragon Colour: Mordreth has a dark hide that is quite rich in colour. He is a dark chocolate brown all over, except for his lighter, klah brown tail. There are also streaks of light tan down his neck and at his wing tips. Mordreth is definitely on the large side for his colour, although his feet appear to be somewhat too large for him, causing him to have a clumsy, yet cute, appearance at times.
Dragon Personality: Mordreth Hatched with clear goals already in mind. He is extremely ambitious, and his hopes are set high. He will do whatever it takes to attain his desires, whatever they may be, and he is quite the opportunist. Mordreth devotes little time to forming friendships, other than the strong bond he holds with his rider, for he can’t help but see other males as competitors in his strive for greatness. Females, on the other hand, he will always have time for. Those who are able to breach his wary exterior, including his rider, become the most important beings on Pern. He is very jealous of the attentions of his friends and rider, and Mordreth will protect them to the best of his abilities.
